Friday Cat Blogging With Photoshop

From Album3

A pensive pose for troubled times. Here's a link to the local paper, otherwise I've been reading the Pic online and going to Oyster's blogroll and links.

Normally I'd say have a good weekend, but under the circumstances.

And...small in the whole scheme of things, but the weather forecast for Sunday doesn't look good, which will force me to think hard about attending Jazz Fest...

More on the spill...not good.

Oyster has an interesting link here, this is the local rag's take.

Cuyahoga fire redux...

Speaking of fires...more computer problems. Spent the last couple of hours wrestling with the machine. Sorry for the rather pedestrian picture...

"Epistemic Closure" -- Gee, Ya Think?

I pick on Mitch because even the Louisville Courier notes how closed minded and wack-a-loon the Rethugs have become.

More on "epistemic closure" from The Gray Lady.

OK, I exaggerate a bit -- this is a Photoshop blog, after all -- but again, aside from the cost in human lives, the potential for a major spill to wreck an economy NOT based on energy extraction...like, oh, I don't know, the Redneck Riviera, or Gulf Coast fishing...is no small consideration...

Accidents happen.
